Yoga Realness

Words by Matt Huxley

In case you’ve had your head in the sand recently, you would have noticed that it has become a bit of a “thing” for people to wear work out gear to brunch, when in fact, they have not worked out, nor do they have any intention to.

Now I love brunch as much as the next human, and I hate exercise, but I love people to think that I’ve done exercise. And I’d love to think that I could do Yoga. So I love this idea, and I thought, why the fuck don’t I put it into practice. So that’s exactly what I did with this shoot.

Ideally I would’ve had joggers and running shoes, but ya know! What’s a boy to do when his closet is firmly planted in the “not suitable for working out” section.

This short sleeved sweater is from Cotton On and I fucking love it. It’s suitable for a breezy autumn day, or, like here, layered over something when it’s a bit colder. I bought this turtleneck over in Barcelona, and it’s of a size so retardedly small that I can’t actually wear it by itself without resembling a hippopotamus. But the neck is super cool, you can actually wear it buttoned up in traditional turtleneck style, or let the flaps loose in the breeze and have it asymmetric.

I paired it with some Armani Exchange jeans, Hype DC slip ons and these super cool shoe laces from the baes over at Bondi Laces.
